Hey CriagV,
I followed all the instructions to perform a deplicate backup of exchange 2003 full backup to a local disk and that went fine. I am able to dig into individual mail box contents. However, the restore of a mailbox contact from this B2D hangs on 0 byte count for more than half an hour. Isn't It was supposed to make the whole process faster as compared to restoring directly from the tape by avoiding the staging process? The restore is being done to another exchange server.
Here is my environment:
Server 1) Media Server - Windows 2003 Server
Server 2) Windows 2003 Server + Exchange 2003
I am trying to restore to another exchange server in the same domain, and I am using BEX Version 12
Please Help!
